The Reliability Of Crowdsourcing: Latent Trait Modeling With Mechanical Turk, Matt Baucum, Steven Rouse Dr., Cindy Miller-Perrin, Elizabeth Mancuso Dr.
The Reliability Of Crowdsourcing: Latent Trait Modeling With Mechanical Turk, Matt Baucum, Steven Rouse Dr., Cindy Miller-Perrin, Elizabeth Mancuso Dr.
Seaver College Research And Scholarly Achievement Symposium
Mechanical Turk, an online crowdsourcing platform, has recently received increased attention in the social sciences as studies continue to suggest its viability as a source for reliable experimental data. Given the ease with which large samples can be quickly and inexpensively gathered, it is worth examining whether Mechanical Turk can provide accurate experimental data for methodologies requiring such large samples. One such methodology is Item Response Theory, a psychometric paradigm that defines test items by a mathematical relationship between a respondent’s ability and the probability of item endorsement. To test whether Mechanical Turk can serve as a reliable source of …
The Effect Of Mobile Health Applications On Health Behaviors: A Pilot Study, Danielle M. Shilling, Cindy Miller-Perrin, Elizabeth Krumrei Mancuso
The Effect Of Mobile Health Applications On Health Behaviors: A Pilot Study, Danielle M. Shilling, Cindy Miller-Perrin, Elizabeth Krumrei Mancuso
Seaver College Research And Scholarly Achievement Symposium
The present research examined the effectiveness of mobile Health (mHealth) fitness and nutrition applications where effectiveness was defined as eliciting behavior changes towards national guidelines for minutes of weekly exercise and daily water consumption. In this study, it was hypothesized that an mHealth Application condition using the MyFitnessPal application would be more effective at altering water consumption and exercise behaviors when compared to a Daily Monitoring condition and a Paper Dairy condition. All 92 participants of this randomized trial participated in a one-week baseline collection and three weeks of intervention for a total of four weeks of participation. Results indicated …
The Reciprocal Relations Between Self-Compassion And Romantic Relationship Variables, Sarah S. Zhang, Khanh Bui Dr., Cindy Miller-Perrin Dr., Elizabeth Mancuso Dr.
The Reciprocal Relations Between Self-Compassion And Romantic Relationship Variables, Sarah S. Zhang, Khanh Bui Dr., Cindy Miller-Perrin Dr., Elizabeth Mancuso Dr.
Seaver College Research And Scholarly Achievement Symposium
This study examined the reciprocal relations between self-compassion and romantic relationship variables longitudinally. Participants included a community sample of 107 U.S. adults (46% female, 54% male, Mage = 34.53 years) who were in the same relationship at both data-collection points. The cross-sectional correlational analyses demonstrated that at both time-points, self-compassion was positively associated with both relationship quality and satisfaction. Structural equation modeling was used to test a longitudinal mediation model, which represented a good fit to the data (χ² = 28.49, df = 13, χ²/df = 2.19, p = .008; GFI = .95; CFI = …
Cognitive Dissonance Within The Realm Of Implicit Bias, Shelby Luptak
Cognitive Dissonance Within The Realm Of Implicit Bias, Shelby Luptak
Undergraduate Research Conference
According to research professors from Harvard University, one’s individual actions will affect his fundamental preferences or beliefs. This is in compliance to cognitive dissonance theory, which posits that an “individual experiences a mental discomfort after taking an action that seems to be in conflict with his or her starting attitude” (Acharya, Blackwell, & Sen, p. 2) Individuals will then choose to subconsciously change their attitudes or beliefs to “conform more closely with their actions” (Acharya et al., p. 2). In other words, from a starting attitude, one makes the decision to engage in contradictory behavior, which results in a change …
The Effects Of Being The Target Of Envy On Satisfaction With Success, Stephen Ratliff, Lauren E. Brewer, Kyle E. Conlon
The Effects Of Being The Target Of Envy On Satisfaction With Success, Stephen Ratliff, Lauren E. Brewer, Kyle E. Conlon
Undergraduate Research Conference
Envy has been defined as wanting something that someone else has, which is distinct from jealousy, because jealousy is emotion fueled by an evolutionary need to protect one’s mate (Parrot & Smith, 1993) .
Benign and malicious envy are distinct in how they motivate us. Benign envy motivates us to perform as well as the target of envy, whereas malicious envy motivates us to sabotage the performance of the target of envy (Lange & Crusius, 2015).
Benign envy is exhibited through feelings of motivation whereas malicious envy is exhibited through feelings of anger (van de Ven, Zeelenberg, & Pieters, 2011; …
Causes And Proposed Solutions For Dental Anxieties And Dental Phobias In Relation To Age And Ethnicity, Michelle Cavalaris
Causes And Proposed Solutions For Dental Anxieties And Dental Phobias In Relation To Age And Ethnicity, Michelle Cavalaris
Undergraduate Research at FIU (URFIU) Conference
There are millions of Americans who suffer from dental phobias and about thirtyfive million Americans who suffer from dental anxieties. These statistics reprent the magnitude of dental related fears among individuals. Persons who suffer from these dental related fears are unable to keep an appointment with a dentist. Therefore, the patient’s oral health suffers; which may lead to other health issues. This experiment was created to determine the basis of dental fear, by concentrating on three categories: age, origin, and dental environment. The first objective of this experiment is to first determine if there is a significant difference between a …
Elevated Prenatal Progesterone Causes An Increased Heart Rate In Northern Bobwhite Quail (Colinus Virginianus) Neonates, Yvette Rodriguez
Elevated Prenatal Progesterone Causes An Increased Heart Rate In Northern Bobwhite Quail (Colinus Virginianus) Neonates, Yvette Rodriguez
Undergraduate Research at FIU (URFIU) Conference
The proposed research is designed to investigate whether increased levels of progesterone found within the yolk of Northern bobwhite quail (Colinus virginianus) will elevate arousal levels as measured by heart rate. Previous studies show that elevated progesterone levels cause an elevation in emotional reactivity among chicks and also influence their auditory learning. Previous studies have also indicated that an increased heart rate following an injection of norepinephrine into quail eggs prior to hatching, can interfere with prenatal auditory learning. To test whether progesterone elevation does have an effect on quail embryos’ heart rate, prior to incubation 90 bobwhite quail chick …
The Power Of The Situation: Approach And Avoidance Tendencies In Romantic Relationships, Emily Wetherell, Helen C. Harton
The Power Of The Situation: Approach And Avoidance Tendencies In Romantic Relationships, Emily Wetherell, Helen C. Harton
Research in the Capitol
How a person handles conflict in a romantic relationship is closely linked with his or her relationship satisfaction. Seeking positive outcomes is correlated with greater satisfaction, while avoiding negative outcomes is correlated with lesser satisfaction. Whether a person tends to seek positives vs. avoid negatives is related to personality, but this study tested whether it also might be affected by aspects of the relationship itself. 114 undergraduates indicated how they were likely to respond in three romantic relationship conflict scenarios that varied the level of a person’s relationship investment, their level of relationship alternatives, and perceived relationship repair/dissolution. I also …

A Methodological Study Of The Use Of “Aha!” Ratings In Research On Insight Problem Solving And Creativity, Alonzo Anderson, Aekta Javia, Joseph Abijaoudi, Holly Fizgerald, Won Valerius, Chelsea Dilks
A Methodological Study Of The Use Of “Aha!” Ratings In Research On Insight Problem Solving And Creativity, Alonzo Anderson, Aekta Javia, Joseph Abijaoudi, Holly Fizgerald, Won Valerius, Chelsea Dilks
Undergraduate Research Symposium
Creativity is often associated with people experiencing sudden flashes of inspiration and understanding. These type of experiences have been called insights or “Aha!” moments. “Aha!” moments or insightful solutions are often described as answers that suddenly appear in the mind, with little effort, and extreme confidence that the answer is correct. This can be contrasted with incremental or analytically solved problems where solutions are reached through effortful, deliberate, and strategically application of prior knowledge. Researchers have often used subjective ratings of participants’ own “Aha!” experiences to differentiate between insightful and incrementally solved problems. In the current study we investigated the …
Developing A Measure Of Psychological Aggression: Stage 2, Arushi Deshpande, Shanon Sabo, John Delosreyes, Shelia Manning, Miguel A. Padilla
Developing A Measure Of Psychological Aggression: Stage 2, Arushi Deshpande, Shanon Sabo, John Delosreyes, Shelia Manning, Miguel A. Padilla
Undergraduate Research Symposium
Current research indicates that psychological aggression can lead to physical aggression. Thus, accurate measures of psychological aggression can be used to quell future physical aggression. However, unsound psychometric properties and fragmented definitions have diminished the accuracy of current psychological aggression scales. The purpose here is to create a sound psychological aggression scale. This part of the study focused on pilot testing preliminary items written to capture behaviors that constitute psychological aggression. An analysis revealed that some preliminary items required removal because of their abnormal distributions. The next step is to field test the items to establish the factor structure of …
